AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS

The PEAK Program is a series of in-person after school classes open to all Sellwood students.  The PEAK program is totally independent of Sellwood Middle School and is under the jurisdiction of PTA. Most classes run on a 8-10 week session schedule in the fall, winter, and spring, and require a fee. Scholarships are available as the PEAK goal is to include every SMS student. Register here!


PIL SPORTS, SIGNUPS & SCHEDULES

The PPS middle grades (6th - 8th) youth sports program will be directed by the Portland Interscholastic League (PIL).  The student/athletes will represent their neighborhood high school cluster. The cluster each athlete participates in is determined by address.  For information about this policy and to access the interactive map please go to Boundary Map and FAQ's under the Youth Sport tab.

2)Applying: The application deadline has been extended to Dec. 22. There is a change this year: you have to apply using the parent vue portal. There is NO direct link to the application.
